Q) I own a property in Los Angeles that is under rent control. One of my tenants is a hoarder and her unit is full of junk, boxes, clothing and newspapers. I have asked her repeatedly to clean up the unit and she promises to but never follows through. What can I do?
A) According to most standard rental agreements tenants are responsible for keeping their unit in a neat and sanitary condition. You can send her a 3-day notice to cure the violation or quit. If she does not clean up the unit or move out within the 3-day period you can begin eviction.
Also, you could file a complaint with the Los Angeles Housing Department. They will cite her for the condition of the unit and order her to clean it up.
